Mate has a Santa Fe. Goes alright, back two seats are a squeeze for adults but fine for kids or non vertically challenged teens. Outlander probably the easiest option as there will be a gazillion of them in second hand land, they don't have any major issues that I am aware of and parts are easy...

Any locals know more about this? Or is it just another 'they're a bit special' in Queensland story?

Yep, it is a sweeping statement, although it's one that's been well documented (for example, and its consequences), and I totally agree with your point about lawyers and union hacks. My wider point/ opinion though is that a lack of parliamentary diversity is not a good thing for democracy as a...

Jackie Lambie Network (JLN) is an unknown given they've never been in state politics, and even at a federal level have never been in a position to play king maker so the relevance of using them as an example of how minority governments don't work is lost on me. And whilst I don't agree with...

The only minority government between 07 and 15 was the Gillard/Rudd government from 2010 - 2013. All others were majority. And as @Tubbsy noted the Gillard government was actually pretty functional despite Abbott crying incessantly about stopping the boats and $200 roast lamb dinners The other...

Frankly most of the candidates for the two majors are a bunch of arsehats so I get why Taswegians are looking for alternatives. I also don't understand why there's this idea in Australia that minority governments are bad, they seem to manage just fine with them in Europe. Of course in a minority...

I've probably taken this the wrong way, but I don't reckon it's super appropriate to be having a crack essentially stating that cyclists who ride on shit roads are irresponsible, during the consideration of an event for which all the evidence suggests that a driver has killed an innocent person...

Similar story to an old girlfriend of mine. We were together for a couple of years at Uni, but I ended up taking a job in the Antarctic with the Brits and called it off because I didn't want to deal with the long distance stuff, and wasn't sure that it was a forever situation. Whilst we were...

I think my favourite bit of random aggression I've had was riding home one day I saw a mate in his car coming the other way, so I flipped him my best military salute with my right hand from the brim of my helmet. At the same time a P plater passes me heading in the same direction, and 200m up...

Err, you can get it here. I've seen a couple on the road in Hobart. Except it's more like $27K USD

That is the only thing that makes logical sense, but given bike brake pads are a dime a dozen everywhere it seems highly unbelievable that these particular ones tripped the red flags

Interesting one and a potential warning here. One of my mates grabbed some Uberbike pads from their e-bay store. Checked out fine but a few days later he got a message from e-bay saying shipping was prohibited because they are a restricted item. I've never had any issues with getting stuff...

I'd take a fruit free hot cross bun over any of these abominations. But yes fruit is a must.

Plus Deadly Bugger, Hazy Dayz, the whole group of trails around Derby Lake, the Derby to Branxholm connector (ok not really a MTB track, more of a gravel ride) and the Blue Tier to Swimcart Beach descent. There's probably some more I've missed. Sent from my Pixel 6a using Tapatalk
